Handling Tips to Prevent Damage of LVL Scaffolding Planks

• Make sure that you do not over-load the plank beyond L/80 deflection limit.
• People often use planks as mud-sills beneath the scaffold frames; check you don’t do the same.
• Do not jump or aggressively bounce on planks or drop boards on the end and ground.
• Do not allow anyone to spear planks with fork tines of the lift truck and drill holes in planks.
• Avoid storing heavy objects on the planks for long time period or use it as a ramp.
  
  

Visual Inspection of Composite Decking

• Dents or gouges on the face of the plank often indicate a great impact force that plays a great part in over stressing the plank.
• End splits passing through the plank thickness could be a clear indication that the plank was dropped recently, so avoid using the same.
• The separation of veneer layers from the LVL scaffolding planks can be a clear indication that the plank was speared with forklift.
• Drilled holes and cut notches will certainly compromise with the performance and efficiency of the planks, in such a case it’s better to adhere to quality products.
• Try to establish a method in order to mark each plank after visual inspection so that you can maintain a proper record of inspected planks.
